The husband and wife were puzzled as they exchanged looks, wondering why Anastasia suddenly changed the subject and said such a thing.
"Tasia, is there a misunderstanding? How could your mother not want to help your uncle if she was still alive? He's her only biological brother. How could she turn a blind eye to him?" Maria asked hastily.
"No, there isn't! You've all been talking about how kind and righteous my mother was. She must be very discerning regarding what's wrong and what's right. Vaccine development isn't a trivial matter. Look at the other countries.
“Time is tight, and there's a lot to do. We must make sure that everything goes well. Although Uncle's company is great, if you don't have enough funds, you won't be able to carry out the research as smoothly as you would have wanted.
“If you insist on taking on the project, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you. It's fine if you don't mind suffering, but if the vaccine isn't up to standard, you'll be heavily criticized by the entire country," Anastasia stated solemnly, "If my mother was still alive, she would feel bad for you. She won't allow you to take up this project."
"You…" Fabian almost couldn't hold himself back and wanted to curse at her.
However, he quickly took a few more deep breaths and forced a grim smile. With a wave of his hand, he said, "You're just a child. You don't understand business."
Then he turned his gaze to Cameron. "Ron, please just help me this time."
"How can I help you?" Cameron asked, shooting him a cold look.
Although his tone was serious when he was talking to Fabian, his gaze toward his daughter was extremely gentle. He softly patted the back of his daughter's hand with one hand while the other hung casually on the side.
